The Safer GAMING Act would ban young gamers from even the most harmless communication—not to mention fun and strategic—in online video games, including nicknames in @Pokemon and taunts in @SmashBrosUS. This is lame. It also violates the First Amendment. My analysis in @reason:

The Safer GAMING Act draws no line between a slur and a Pokémon nickname. That's a First Amendment problem. reason.com/2026/08/29/law…

This is what we do best: We defend the First Amendment—and the statutory limits on agencies that check abuse. We build broad, bipartisan coalitions including former FCC leaders, top free speech scholars, and groups across the ideological spectrum committed to free speech.

I’m glad Disney has shown courage and stepped up. It is time this administration understands that the Constitution does not bend to political convenience, and that the First Amendment protects news and commentary even when those in power wish it didn’t.

Today Senate Commerce marks up several Bad Internet Bills, including KOSA - which for years experts have warned violates the First Amendment. Instead of fixing the problems, KOSA's sponsors have denied they exist & tried to disguise them with obfuscatory language. My statement:

📄 The FTC cannot police political bias in AI services. Last week, @TechFreedom filed comments explaining why the First Amendment and longstanding FTC precedent bar the Commission from policing the bias, objectivity, accuracy, or balance of AI-generated outputs.
